PROGNOSIS OF THE SLOPE DEFORMATIONS BASED ON SOIL STRENGTH TESTS AND GEOMECHANICAL MODELS

摘要

This paper considers problems of ensuring long-term stability of argillaceous soil slopes (rock slopes with clay bands) with rheological properties. The stability assessments results of argillaceous slopes depends very much on reliable prediction of expected speed and absolute values of landslip sliding [Freiberg, 1999].The study of slope long-term stability process is also of special importance at ensuring safety and environmental protection in the presence of critical buildings on landslideable areas. As the example we can take examined in this report conditions of ensuring slope safe operation at the warehouse area of Odessa Port Plant (Ukraine) with large-capacity storages of liquid ammonia and super phosphoric acid, loading terminals, chemical production buildings etc., and adjoining the lower section of the slope deepwater berths.
